When I travel through the mountains in British Columbia, I am always impressed and in awe about the strength and majesty of the rugged edges. In some places, they needed to use dynamite to blast through some of the rocky parts of the mountains to build a new highway. They are rightly called the Rocky Mountains and a very solid foundation.
The thought keeps coming back that Christ is like a rock. Corinthians 3:11 tells us 鈥淥ther foundation can no man lay than Jesus Christ.鈥 Edward More tells us in a beautiful hymn 鈥淥n Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.鈥 I have never encountered sinking sand, but have seen pictures of people who disappeared in sinking sand, ending up in death.
Just looking around, we can see God鈥檚 majesty and power in progress. The crops look ready to be harvested. When I go to the farmer鈥檚 market, I see an abundance of homegrown produce. Chronicles 29:11 tells us 鈥淭hine, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty.鈥
